Distancing oneself from צואת קטן:

Questions:

At what stage does the צואת קטן have the status of צואה; when the infants that age start to eat foods from the five grains or when this child personally starts to eat them?

If a child started to eat food from the five grains but them stopped for a long period of time would his צואה lose the status of צואה?

Quickly review the גמרא דף י: “אי נמי until “וליחוש”

Clarify the four concepts the gemara introduces 

1. פרוץ מרובה על העומד

2. עומד מרובה משני רוחות 

3. פרוץ כעומד

4. אתי אוירא .. ומבטלה 

Why don’t we consider the remaining opening of ten Amos to be פרוץ מרובה  from the Amud adjacent to it?

See ח’ מאירי דף י (In middle) from “ואע”ג דפרוץ דפתח מרובה 

The gemara says it’s possible that פרוץ כעומד is good yet we still would say אתי אוירא מהאי גיסא ואוירא מהאי גיסא ומבטלה. If פרוץ  is indeed כעומד why should it be any different than when the Amud is larger than the adjacent gap of air in which we do not say אתי אוירא ומבטלה?

Review the גמרא דף י. “תני לוי (four lines from bottom of the Amud) until דף י: “אי נמי  

Questions:

Rashi says a single post help can not reduce the size of the opening of the Mavui because אתי אוירא מהאי גיסא ואוירא מהאי גיסא ומבטלה

See רש”י דף י. “אין

See ח’ רע”א who asks on Rashi the gemara at this stage does not know of the concept of אתי אוירא ומבטל?

The Gemara first solution to reduce the size of the opening of the Mavui is to place a panel of four Amos continue learning the gemara which presents an alternate solution 

Continue learning the גמרא דף י: “אי נמי until “וליחוש”

Clarify the three concepts the gemara introduces of פרוץ מרובה על העומד, פרוץ כעומד, אתי אוירא .. ומבטלה

Relying on קטנים for Shechita:

Review “תוספות “והיודע

Questions:

When can one rely on a קטן to perform Shechita on an animal?

Can a קטן be a Shochet?

The ר”ן asks a contradiction to our Gemara from the Mishna חולין דף ב and גמרא חולין דף מב עמוד ב which says that one may not give animals to a child to slaughter and only in the event that he did slaughter correctly as an adult was supervising may it be eaten? 

The Ran reconciles the contradiction and explains that the Gemara in Chulin is dealing with a child who is unskilled at slaughtering therefore he may not be given animals to slaughter lest an error will result however our Gemara is dealing with a trained skilled minor and he may be given animals to slaughter as long as there is an adult supervising.
